This is a list of orders of battle for the 1416–1418 campaigns of the Ava–Hanthawaddy War (1408–1418).

Background Sources The orders of battles in this article are sourced from the main royal chronicles—the Maha Yazawin, the Yazawin Thit and the Hmannan Yazawin, which primarily narrate the war from the Ava side. The Razadarit Ayedawbon and Pak Lat Chronicles, which narrate from the Hanthawaddy perspective do not provide any details for this phase of the war.

Adjustment of strength figures The military strength figures in this article have been reduced by an order of magnitude from those reported in the chronicles, following G.E. Harvey's and Victor Lieberman's analyses of Burmese chronicles' military strength figures in general.See (Harvey 1925: 333–335)'s "Numerical Note". (Lieberman 2014: 98) writing on the First Toungoo period concurs: "Military mobilizations were probably more of a boast than a realistic estimate. Modern industrial states have difficulty placing 10% of their people under arms."
